Thread: TDI Golf or Wagon?

  1. 06-26-2012 10:19 AM #1
    I just can't decide. Should I do the pretty Shark Blue Golf with tech package or a Wagon w/ Nav? Going DSG either way.

    Depends on what you are looking for.

    The wagon has more room, plus maybe a pano roof if you want it. but, the Golf looks a bit cooler and is probably cheaper.

    In the US, the TDI Golf comes standard with a sport suspension - handles about the same as a GTI (slightly better on rough roads, slightly worse on smooth tarmac).

    The MKVI Golf also has some improvements (stiffer due to more Laser welds, better sound insulation, slightly improved suspension tuning) compared to the "Mk5.5" JSW, which only received cosmetic changes compared to the MkV.

    Shark Blue is no longer available. You might be able to locate one, but this was my scenario only 6 weeks ago, and Shark Blue just isn't out there.
